The state of the economy is…sluggish.
“The economy grew at a sluggish 2.2 percent pace in the final quarter
of last year, much slower than initially estimated, the government
reported Wednesday in the sort of unusually large revision that has
happened only seven times in the last 30 years.”

Last month, President Bush touted the initial growth rate estimate —
3.5 percent — as a sign of a “strong” economy.
